STUDENT EMPLOYMENT

Work Study

This award provides employment opportunities in various campus
offices. Students are paid at an hourly rate and receive paychecks every two
weeks. Earnings are to be used to meet college charges, as well as
provide for personal expenses.

Most students work between 8 and 10 hours a week and, on
average, earn from $300 to $2,000 a year. Students are responsible
for seeking out their own campus job opportunities. Those eligible
for federal work study have priority during the first two weeks of
each semester to secure a position. After that, the positions are
available to all students.Only federal work study eligible
students may work in the America Reads and America Counts
programs.

In order to receive a paycheck for your work study position, you must complete all necessary forms-during Orientation, or at a later date, in the Office of Human Resources in Coxe Hall. Be sure to bring two forms of proper identification (driver's license, Social Security card, birth certificate, passport). Payroll forms must be completed prior to working on campus.

Sodexho Dining Services Positions

Employment with the Sodexho Dining Services permits students to
earn a percentage of board charges. Board credit for the hours
actually worked by a student is applied bi-monthly directly to his or
her bill. Hours and job responsibilities are arranged with Sodexho
administrators early in the fall semester. Student awards range from
4 to 16 hours a week and cover 25 to 100 percent of the board
charge. Students should note that federal and state taxes may be
withheld from earnings prior to the crediting of their account.
